Royalty-free music and audio for video production

Below is a list of sources for royalty-free music and other audio tracks for video production. Although using music in news stories isn’t always a good idea, there are many times when we need music to enhance a video or broadcast journalism project. Intros for newscasts, sports highlights, tributes and slide shows can all benefit from an appropriate soundtrack.

http://www.productiontrax.com is also another great pick. Royalty free music, production music, and sound effects, not to mention stock footage and stock photos. Great for all around multimedia content.

Hi Aaron, I have a couple of additions for you if I can; http://www.ambientmusicgarden.com for chilled music styles focusing on background use in CDs, DVD production as well as online marketing projects such as videos. Also, http://www.melodypods.com for royalty free background use. It’s worth mentioning that there are differences between online businesses in terms of what they’re offering royalty free. Not all offer performing royalties free. Hope this helps.

http://www.smartsound.com has a huge library of customizable royalty free music that can be fit to the exact length you need, so the music ends when you want it to instead of having to fade out or edit the track yourself. There are a few free songs, and the rest are available for purchase.

Hello there. http://www.themusicase.com hosts currently more than 55,000 premium royalty free music & SFX. with prices starting at 29 USD per track. For heavy users there is also the Premium Account option.

Thanks for your video; a very helpful resource. Another great resource that I found recently is Soundstripe. Soundstripe is a service that allows you FULL access to their entire library of music, for only a small monthly fee of $15/month.
